Verse I — Before the Dawn
Before the world was born
There was a whisper in the void
A voice like fire,
saying “Let there be…”
Light poured out of nothing
Stars obeying every word
He set the oceans in their boundaries
And wrote His Name on every world
And the angels bowed in wonder
To the One they could not hold
For the Son was coming mortal
Cloaked in fragile flesh and bone
⸻
Pre-Chorus
He traded heaven for hunger
Glory for the dust of earth
Every breath a burning promise:
Love will conquer death.
⸻
Chorus
Oh—
Fall on me,
Break this body just to heal me
Oh—
Crown of thorns,
Tear the heavens just to reach me
Oh—
Blood and breath,
Every heartbeat for my freedom
Oh—
Crimson rain,
Son of God who dies to free them
(You are the Lamb. You are the Lion.)
⸻
Verse II — The Carpenter’s Hands
He grew in shadows, silent
Wood and nails beneath His palms
Every splinter was a secret
Of the price He came to pay
Demons trembled when He spoke
Storm and sea knelt at His feet
The leper healed with just a touch
The dead breathed when He would speak
He turned water into wine
As if creation was His blood
Every miracle a warning:
The hour soon would come.
⸻
Pre-Chorus
He washed the feet of sinners
A King with no demand
He held the world together
With a carpenter’s hands
⸻
Chorus
Oh—
Fall on me,
Break this body just to heal me
Oh—
Crown of thorns,
Tear the heavens just to reach me
Oh—
Blood and breath,
Every heartbeat for my freedom
Oh—
Crimson rain,
Son of God who dies to free them
(You are the Lamb. You are the Lion.)
⸻
Bridge — Gethsemane
In the garden, under moonlight
He was sweating drops of blood
Every shadow whispered terror
As the soldiers came with clubs
“Take Me, leave them—
I am willing.”
Judas kissed Him as a friend
Chains for hands that shaped creation
He was led away condemned
They beat Him, mocked Him, cursed Him
Spit and tore His back apart
He could summon legions screaming—
Yet He opened not His mouth
(Like a lamb before the slaughter.)
⸻
Breakdown — Golgotha
Nails through bone
Hammered mercy
Wood ascends upon the hill
Legion watching,
Mother weeping
Clouds grow black and time stands still
“Father, forgive them—
They don’t know what they’re doing.”
Darkness fell across the daylight
And the temple veil was torn
He whispered “It is finished.”
He surrendered up His breath
Every demon felt the tremor
As the Author tasted death
⸻
Final Chorus
Oh—
Fall on me,
Break this body just to heal me
Oh—
Crown of thorns,
Tear the heavens just to reach me
Oh—
Blood and breath,
Every heartbeat for my freedom
Oh—
Crimson rain,
Son of God who dies to free them
Oh—
Breath returns,
Stone is broken, grave is empty
Oh—
Risen King,
Every nation bows before Thee
Oh—
Holy fire,
From beginning to ascension
Oh—
Endless reign,
Jesus Christ, the Resurrection
(You are the Lamb. You are the Lion.)
